The Let-It-All-Out: We're Here For You. No, Really.

Look at that. The chat is still there.
And it allows more than 25 people on at a time.

Man-oh-man... do chatrooms, no matter where they are, ALWAYS attract Derps? (To be clear, I'm not referring to n00bs, although both clubs are not mutually exclusive.) I hope the chat thing doesn't kill the Hangout threads... I don't post in them a lot, but I do enjoy reading them.

Also, I'm a bit concerned that with so many places to interact (Hangout, Free-4-All, Visitor Messages, Blogs, Private Messaging, and now chat) the sense of community is becoming diluted, and things are becoming a bit clique-ish and anti-social. Anyone else sense this, or is it just me?

EP has always been clique-ish. Even the people that post in the Hang Out tend to ignore posts by people they don't enjoy interacting with. And then there's all of the specialty threads and forums (Fighters Thread, Retro, etc). I think the chat is great for new members who are trying to "fit in," or are just coming in to ask a few questions and then leave. Something like that. Not sure how much I will end up using it, but I think it's a pretty nifty feature. Besides, maybe it actually will cut down on all of the "where teh romz" and "how do I get _____ to work?" threads, since they can get more instant responses via chat. I can see a few people hanging around the chat just to "help" people, or just hang out, similar to the IRC channel. Which I think was great, but I never personally went there. Perhaps with the chat being integrated into the forum, it will get more love than the IRC channel has had lately.

Perhaps.

That makes sense... I have seen a lot of single-posters here lately. I hope it works out as you guys indended. Alas, I am human, and don't take well to change... Perhaps in time, I'll get used to it.

And hey, thanks for replying.

I've seen Zorlon and a few others helping out in the chat, so yeah, it can be pretty useful.

I honestly don't care. I'll probably keep the chat on for the same reason I keep the Facebook chat on -- in case someone decides they want to chat with me.
Not sure how much I'll actually venture in there. Perhaps when the Hang Out is dead and I'm really bored.

As for the rest of your posts, well... that's a completely different story.

Me too!

Well, almost, anyway.
I still have my makeup on.

Better wash that junk off, or else you'll need even more make-up after your face breaks out.

Funny...I was thinking the same thing. I have sensitive skin

I sort of do, too. But I don't really wear much make-up anyway.

Boringboringboring.

And I can't even see if anyone decent is online.

I'm so not opening that chat window up.

[Drageuth]

But chat is where all the cool kids are.
Or so they like to think.

One hour and fifteen minutes until the puck drops.
